An invisible network of threads connects hundreds of grieving #parents across America. The connection is not formal. There is no organizational structure, no listserv, no roster of names. But their bond is strong enough that they often describe themselves—glibly but also in earnest—as "the club." There is only one criterion for membership: you sent a child to #school one day and then never saw them again because of a bullet, leaving you with pain, loss and perhaps even other shattered children. "It's a club you spend your whole life hoping you won't ever become a part of," says Nicole Hockley, whose son Dylan, 6, was killed in the December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. "But once you're in, you're in." This web of wounded souls spans #America. They come from rural outposts and big cities, from Democratic strongholds and the reddest regions of Trump Country. They have different religions, income levels and ethnicities. What they share is the agony that comes with losing a child to gun violence in a place where that child was supposed to be safe. That calamity creates ineffable bonds. Even family and friends "can never fully, fully understand," says Annika Dworet, whose 17-year-old son Nicholas was killed during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in #Parkland, Fla., in February. "So you feel a special connection with other parents who have gone through this." Joe Samaha, whose 18-year-old daughter Reema was shot to death at Virginia Tech in 2007, agrees: "We understand the pain, the trauma and the long-term aftermath. It's a brother- and sisterhood."
